Overview Effect

It is the experience of seeing firsthand the reality of the Earth in space, which is immediately understood to be a tiny, fragile ball of life, "hanging in the void", shielded and nourished by a paper-thin atmosphere. From space, national boundaries vanish, the conflicts that divide people become less important, and the need to create a planetary society with the united will to protect this "pale blue dot" becomes both obvious and imperative.

Astronauts experience the Overview Effect in space looking at the Earth.

The Timo Effect

Having the urge to purchase games with the false belief of that they'll enjoy it once they play it. Just to realize their mistake and how much regret they'll hold for the few weeks, just to repeat that same mistake again.

Man 1: "I really like the game that you're playing, I might buy it so we can play."
Man 2: "But I've never really seen you play this type of genre??"
Man1: "Yeah, but this one looks different, I'm sure I'll love it."
*Man 1 plays the game once, and never plays it ever again*
Man 2: "You're going through the Timo Effect."
